Rangers re-sign defenseman Matthew Robertson as camp battle looms
NY Post
The Rangers kept former second-round pick Matthew Robertson in the fold, signing the restricted free agent to a one-year, two-way deal on Monday.
If in the NHL, Robertson will make the league minimum $775,000, The Post’s Mollie Walker reported.
Robertson, who has been in the organization since 2019, has yet to play an NHL game but could have the chance to do so this season.
He will likely be in the competition for the team’s seventh defense spot at training camp along with Chad Ruhwedel and perhaps Ben Harpur after Ruhwedel re-signed last week on a similar two-way deal.
